Buy to let advice

It not as easy as you may think, more so if you live in a community as everything needs to be passed by the president of the community.

Not all areas allow property rentals, you would need to check at the town hall in the town you purchase your property in.

There are certain licenses and buildings criteria you would need to acquire before renting, the info should be available at the town hall and you would need to check with the mortgage company if renting would be allowed.

My  opinion   is  owing  a property  in Spain  is a Luxury  not  an  investment. 

Just to  have keys in your  pocket  for a normal  2 bed  Apartment  costs about 1500 euros  a year. Community  fees House  insurance.   Non Resident  tax.  Standing charges  on Water and Electricity  even if you never use any. Bursa =  Rubbish  collect. Keys   holding  service.  And there will always  be maintenance 

Buying  to  live  permanently  OK  if  you can tolerate  June to September  heat

We have produced written and video blogs on holiday letting and Tourist Licenses that can be  found on this forum (search Tourist License and our name). As you are at the research stage can you please private message me your email address and we can answer your questions directly with links to official info. 

It isn't just a case of find a place you like and start advertising. There are lots of regulations and if you buy in certain locations then you can't get the License required, so you need to buy the right property in the right location. Yes, holiday letting can pay all or some of your mortgage (depends on the size of the mortgage), or give you a small additional income.

Just a little advice, Sligogent.   Bursa is not the Spanish word for rubbish, the word is basura.

If done properly through Airbnb and other letting agents it can be a very good summer income but it depends on how big the property is, you need to have enough beds and facilities like a pool to justify a high price, if you rent at say 1400euro for a two week stay it works out quite nicely but you need to make sure that you are at full occupancy because during the winter months you still have to pay the bills
